Earth’s magnetic north pole has been moving East at an unusually fast pace, heading from the Canadian Arctic toward Russia
The rapid change of the magnetic poles has caused concern over navigation, GPS systems, military operations, etc.
The northern magnetic pole has been drifting toward Russia at a speed of 34 miles per year but has slowed recently to 25 miles per year .Wandering and flipping of Earth’s magnetic poles is common and has happened many times in Earth’s history.The magnetic poles are a result of Earth’s molten iron outer core, which moves and flows as the Earth spins.
Currently, Earth’s North and South poles match the magnetic North and magnetic South poles. However, that has changed in Earth’s history when the poles flipped, magnetic south was at the true north pole and vice versa. Scientists can see these flips in rock records which fingerprint the current magnetic north location while the rock is molten.
